$A$ particle moves in a potential region given by the formula $U = K(x^2 + y^2 + z^2)$. Find the force acting on the particle.

  • A
    $k(x\hat{i} + y\hat{j} + z\hat{k})$
  • B
    $2k(x\hat{i} + y\hat{j} + z\hat{k})$
  • C
    $-2k(x\hat{i} + y\hat{j} + z\hat{k})$
  • D
    $-k(x\hat{i} - y\hat{j} + z\hat{k})$
